(I really can't stay) But baby it's cold outside |
|
(I've got to go away) But baby it's cold outside |
|
(This evening has been) Been hoping that you'd drop in |
|
(So very nice) I'll hold your hands they're just like ice |
|
(My mother will start to worry) Beautiful what's your hurry |
|
(My father will be pacing the floor) Listen to the fireplace roar |
|
(So really I'd better scurry) Beautiful please don't hurry |
|
(Well maybe just half a drink more) Put some records on while I pour |
|
(The neighbors might think) Baby it's bad out there |
|
(Say what's in this drink) No cabs to be had out there |
|
(I wish I knew how) Your eyes are like starlight now |
|
(To break this spell) I'll take your hat, your hair looks swell |
|
(I ought to say no no no sir) Mind if I move in closer |
|
(At least I'm gonna say that I tried) What's the sense of hurting my pride |
|
(I really can't stay) Baby don't hold doubt |
|
[Both:] Baby it's cold outside |
|
(I simply must go) But baby it's cold outside |
|
(The answer is no) But baby it's cold outside |
|
(The welcome has been) How lucky that you dropped in |
|
(So nice and warm) Look out the window at the storm |
|
(My sister will be suspicious) Gosh your lips look delicious |
|
(My brother will be there at the door) Waves upon a tropical shore |
|
(My maiden aunt's mind is vicious) Gosh your lips are delicious |
|
(But maybe just a cigarette more) Never such a blizzard before |
|
(I got to get home) But baby you'd freeze out there |
|
(Say lend me your comb) It's up to your knees out there |
|
(You've really been grand) I thrill when you touch my hand |
|
(But don't you see) How can you do this thing to me |
|
(There's bound to be talk tomorrow) Think of my life long sorrow |
|
(At least they'll be plenty implied) If you caught pneumonia and died |
|
(I really can't stay) Get over that old doubt |
|
[Both:] Baby it's cold outside |
|
[Both:] Baby it's cold outside |
|
(I really can't stay) |

[Both:] Baby it's cold outside |
